An outstanding opportunity has arisen within a large and dynamic Facilities Management company, who continue to enjoy sustained growth with its impressive multi-site client base which includes a National Facilities contract for Asda.

As a result of recent growth, we are now embarking on an important recruitment exercise for our client.

This will result in the appointment of a Depot Maintenance Electrician who will take responsibility for providing a planned and reactive maintenance service across an Asda Distribution Centre in Washington NEC.

The maintenance will be provided across a range of electrical and mechanical plant and therefore exposure to both electrical and mechanical equipment is required. You will also be expected to carry out general building fabric maintenance throughout the Depot, so please only apply for the role if you are happy to carry out general building fabric maintenance as well as electrician maintenance.

Your technical experience could have been gained from any number of sectors including Warehousing, Distribution, Logistics, Facilities, Food Production Plants or indeed a Factory environment. The plant is heavy industrial and isn't likely to suit candidates from an electrical installation background.

You will be positive in approach, able to work in a dynamic business environment, but above all be committed to the delivery of outstanding customer service. You will be a strong communicator at all levels and be able to react to priority changes.

You will be fully qualified and have served an electrical or mechanical apprenticeship and therefore hold a City & Guilds 236 Parts 1&2 or City & Guilds 2330 Levels 2&3 or NVQ Level 3 plus 18th edition.

Candidates must have a full and valid driving licence and full use of their own vehicle (pool vehicle will be provided for when you are on call).

If you feel these qualities describe you, then we would like to hear from you.
